Once called The Consumer Electronics Show, today CES would be better characterized as the consumer everything show. Anything with a transistor in it will be on display in Vegas next week. AI will be the star of the show again this year, as it has not yet reached peak hype.

XR is well represented, and usually concentrated at the convention center, although startups can be found at the Sands/Venetian convention center. Sony Playstation, and PlaystationVR, have a huge footprint every year. Assisted Reality glasses, wearable displays for smartphones from XReal, Rokid, RayNEO, TCL, Lenovo, Virtue, and others will have an even bigger presence this year.

Luxottica, maker of Meta’s Ray-Ban Stories, will have a booth featuring the newly updated smartglasses which don’t have a display, but will have an AI co-pilot. The stylish Xreal Air2. Xreal ships 350K AR glasses in 2023, takes 51% of market in Q .
